The California Plateau and the Great Basin adapted to their arid climates through various ecological strategies. Vegetation in these regions often features drought-resistant species, such as sagebrush and creosote bush, which conserve water and thrive in low-nutrient soils. Additionally, many animals have developed behaviors and physiological adaptations, such as nocturnal lifestyles and burrowing, to cope with extreme temperatures and scarce water resources. These adaptations enable ecosystems in both areas to maintain biodiversity and resilience in harsh environments.
Another name for the Columbia plateau is the Columbia basin
